Topic: Which wallets support 32 word seed phrases - page 2. (Read 278 times)
It’s definitely an added word by the owner of the seed phrase, right now you need to find how to gets those words and since you said some words are not familiar they might not be from BIP39 seed phrase. You can check the list here, maybe you can filter those words out that are not here. Then you might be facing a problem of whether the wallet is passphrase or not which is another problem aside the right arrangement of the words if gotten (although can be solved by bitarecover tool).
I think your uncle added more words himself. People invent their own method of security and either back up their seed phrase in the wrong order or add extra words to it, they do this thinking it will protect them from attackers, but on the other hand what it does is make open a possibility of you losing access to your funds, because you forgot how you obscured things.
Maybe he added words to make it harder for thieves.
32 words can not make a valid seed phrase. Seed phrase will be 12,15,18, 21 or 24 words long.
Hi there. I inherited a Bitcoin wallet seed phrase from my uncle, but he didn't capture all the details. It's a list of 32 words. However all the wallets I tried so far only use 12,18 and 24 words. The words also seem a bit different to the typical words I remember seeing in my own wallet phrases. Lastly the one word is hard to make out, but will cross that bridge once I know what type of wallet this is. Any help would be appreciated. Let me know if you need more detail.
